The Kingswood Hotel

Excellent stay - hotel and staff excellent with car park. No problems

Overall another lovely stay at The Kingswood. The lounge is lovely, the quiz a bonus and staff all delightful - special shoutout to Steve who is an asset all round. Lots of personal attention including remembering our son’s name. Breakfast is great quality and tasty with good choice. Room was a bit warm despite radiators being off and there’s no aircon. Windows do open but it can be noisy if you look out onto the car park. A rather noisy rattly fan started up each morning at 7 at the back of the property - I think the kitchen extractor. Didn’t bother us as we are up by then but if you like a lie in it was probably loud enough to wake you. The hotel couldn’t be more convenient for the seafront and town centre, with everywhere easily walkable from it. Free parking is available if you ask early enough.

The hotel was great in almost every way. However, fundamentally I expect good quality beds. I booked a family room for 3 adults, clearly stating that we would each need our own bed. Staff were helpful in making up a second pull out bed but the two pull out beds were extraordinarily uncomfortable, each with a ridge across the middle that gave me a sore back to sleep on. I'm guessing its mostly children that take these beds but that shouldn't mean they should tolerate them. Disappointing as I really needed a good night's sleep.

Amazing location and the sea facing balcony really enhanced the whole experience.

So as we were driving down to Devon we were running a little late. Liz on reception took the trouble to ring us and check our ETA so that we wouldn't have any difficulty getting in when we arrived. Top drawer. She had also rang me earlier in the week to sort out our parking as she suspected email wasn't working. And on top of that they're dog friendly. In fact most of Sidmouth is dog friendly.

The Kingswood Hotel is a right on the seafront in Sidmouth. The hotel is welcoming with a light and airy dining room and bar and lounge area with board games, overlooking the beach. The staff were polite, welcoming and helpful. I stayed here on a business trip and ate breakfast here, but no other meals. The breakfast was delicious with a large choice of both cooked items from the menu, but also an extensive breakfast buffet including items such as berry compote, fruit salad, cereal and yogurt and juices. I had a comfortable and enjoyable stay and would definitely like to stay here again, when in Sidmouth.

excellent all round holiday

Fantastic service by everyone

Always friendly and so convenient for prom and town

Kudos to Rajeen (reception) and Mirshad (restaurant) for being so kind and helpful throughout the stay, we felt very welcomed despite some of our unconventional requests! We loved to sleep with sound of the waves behind our window, the whole place manages to be quiet but lively at the same time

The staff and service we received throughout our whole stay, from booking to checking out, has been fabulous. Would definitely recommend.

Excellent all round would stay again

I don’t normally do reviews. However The Kingswood fully deserves this. Had a long weekend here. An absolutely amazing hotel right on the seafront of Sidmouth. Asked for a room with seaview and we got it. Room was perfectly sized for us. Plenty of space so it didn’t feel like you were crammed in like some places can be. Bathroom was good size with walk in shower. Left window open all the time so we could listen to the waves, very relaxing and fully recharged the batteries. Food was superb. Arrived on the Friday and had an evening meal. Looked a bit pricey but the quality of the pasta dish I had, and the turkey medallion my wife had quickly made it worthwhile. Same as the Sunday evening meal. We both had the chicken and it was so good I thought about ordering it again! Breakfasts were more than adequate with plenty of choices. Every member of staff we met was very friendly and more than helpful. They always had time to speak to all the guests and make sure everything was ok for them. Fully recommend a stay. Will definitely return here.
